In my family，quilting and sewing is a tradition that has been passed down through the generations. My mother says her great-grandmother would occasionally travel around New York State to sew clothing for other families.In the United States，quilting was a craft(手艺)that started as a necessity and eventually became much more. In 1862, the U.S. government offered millions of acres of land to Americans who wanted to move west. This allowed families to settle on land that that could eventually own. They often built their own homes and lived off the vegetables in their gardens and the livestock they had. Sewing was very important for women because they were responsible for clothing their families and keeping them warm.Quilting also became a chance for women to socialize with each other.They would gather for so-called “quilting bees”，where they would meet up and work on one quilting project together. This provided a much-needed relief from the lonely life of living on a large piece of land.Throughout history, the different patterns on American quilts have conveyed all kinds of information. From then，we can tell where a person lived，what region of the world they originated from, or sometimes a story is told in pictures on a quilt.Even today，women still gather to quit together in a show of friendship and a love for the craft，just like the old days.My sister has tried quilting a few times，and hopefully，her two daughters may one day continue this family tradition.28. What do we know about quilting？A. It is a lost traditional craft.B. It is a major means of making a living in the USA.C. It is a craft that has become a cultural symbol.D. It was a way to carry on the American history.29. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 3？A. Introduce a new topic for discussion.B. Summarize the previous paragraphsC. Add some background information.D. Praise the U.S.governments policy.30. What does the underlined word“this”in paragraph 4 refer to？A. Working on the land.B. Participating in“quilting bees”.C. Designing a quilting project.D. Clothing the family.31. What is the authors purpose in writing the text？A. To instruct how to sew together fabric.B. To show the authors skills of quilting.C. To tell about the struggle of womenD. To appeal for preservation of quilting.【答案】28. C 29. C 30. B 31. D【解析】【分析】本文属于记叙文，讲述缝被子是自己家族传统，也在美国历史上有着重要的意义，呼吁保护好这一传统。【28题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Throughout history, the different patterns on American quilts have conveyed all kinds of information. From then，we can tell where a person lived，what region of the world they originated from, or sometimes a story is told in pictures on a quilt.可知，美国被子的不同图案传递了各种各样的信息，比如在哪里生活，来自哪里等，说明被子本身已经有了文化符号，承载着特定的文化，故选C。【29题详解】作者意图题。根据第三段Sewing was very important for women because they were responsible for clothing their families and keeping them warm.可知，针线活很重要的原因，为本文话题被子增加了新的背景知识，故选C。【30题详解】词义猜测题。根据本段They would gather for so-called “quilting bees”，where they would meet up and work on one quilting project together.可知，that指代上文出现的内容，即妇女们能够坐在一起完成一个被子，故选B。【31题详解】作者意图题。根据最后一段My sister has tried quilting a few times，and hopefully，her two daughters may one day continue this family tradition.可知，作者姐姐尝试缝被子几次了，希望她的两个女儿有一天也能够继续这个家族传统，可知，作者写作目的是为了保护这一传统，故选D。【点睛】关于词义猜测题做题技巧。关于词义猜测题做题技巧。词义猜测题是阅读理解中常见的一种题型，主要有对生词的词义猜测，熟词新义以及代词的猜测。其关键是根据上下文的逻辑关系，利用已掌握的信息，有必要的时候，借助生活或者文化常识，确定单词的词义。小题3，根据本段They would gather for so-called “quilting bees”，where they would meet up and work on one quilting project together.可知，that指代上文出现的内容，即妇女们能够坐在一起完成一个被子，故选B。DSkyscrapers are the symbol of Urban life.City people are used to seeing tall buildings and apartments. Farms，on the other hand,are associated with rural(农村的)life.However，there are experts who think skyscrapers should become farms to meet the increasing food needs.By the middle of this century, some scientists suggest，almost 80% of the earths population could live in cities. In addition，the population could increase to 9.1 billion people during that time yet the amount of land available for farming will be the same.If current farming practices dont change，we will need an area of new land to produce enough food for the planet.Vertical farms, where urban farmers could grow crops in environmentally friendly skyscrapers, could be the solution. In spite of concerns over high costs, experts want to make it a reality and use these skyscrapers to grow crops.Vertical farms would have many advantages, supporters say. Unlike traditional farming, vertical farming could be free of chemicals and diseases. Besides, crops would not suffer from problems like flooding. Finally，vertical farms would reduce the cost and negative effects of transporting food over long distances.Some argue that although crops growing in a tall glass building would get natural sunlight during the day，it wouldnt be enough. For this reason，vertical farms would need additional light sources(来源), such as artificial light.Another way of growing fresh food is to build urban farms on rooftops. This more practical approach may be more achievable than the idea of farms in skyscrapers, researchers suggest. Experts agree that innovative(革新的)farming practices are needed to support the need for more food at affordable costs, both to the farmer and to the consumer,but the best ideas could be yet to come.32. What primary problem could vertical farming settle？A. Poor state of rural life.B. Shortage of food supply.C. High cost for transporting crops.D. Environmental pollution by transitional farmings33. What is the advantage of vertical farming?A. It can produce organic food.B. It requires little care.C. It can benefit transport industry.D. It needs very low cost.34. What is a big challenge to make vertical farming a reality?A. Farmable land.B. Crop diseasesC. Light sources.D. Climate conditions.35. What can be the best title of the test?A. Future Food NeedsB. Symbol of Urban LifeC. Farming on RooftopsD. Farms of the Future【答案】32. B 33. A 34. C 35. D【解析】【分析】本文属于说明文，为了解决日益增长的食物需求，专家介绍了两种在高楼大厦可以发展的农业，垂直农业和屋顶农场。【32题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段Vertical farms, where urban farmers could grow crops in environmentally friendly skyscrapers, could be the solution.可知，发展垂直农业可能是解决食物紧缺方法，故选B。【33题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段Unlike traditional farming, vertical farming could be free of chemicals and diseases.可知，垂直农业不受化学物品和病虫害的影响，故可以生产有机食品，故选A。【34题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段Some argue that although crops growing in a tall glass building would get natural sunlight during the day，it wouldnt be enough.可知，垂直农业最大的问题就是光线不够，需要额外的光源，故选C。【35题详解】主旨大意题。为了解决日益增长的食物需求，专家介绍了两种在高楼大厦可以发展的农业，垂直农业和屋顶农场，故主要介绍未来的农业类型，故选D。【点睛】主旨大意题的做题技巧。这类试题要求对文章的整体或局部（如段落）进行分析、概括，归纳相关部分的中心大意(Main idea)，选择标题(title)，判断作者的写作目的(purpose)等，旨在考查考生加工与浓缩信息的能力。这一项考查的是文章的灵魂与中心。记叙文、议论文常考文章的主旨大意。一般主旨大意常出现在文章的开头，有时也出现在结尾。当然更重要的是从全文去把握。首先，任何一篇文章都是围绕某个主题展开的，因此，许多文章中最明显的特点之一是有一个反复出现的中心词，即高频词，也叫做主题词。抓住了它，便容易抓住文章的中心。第二，要搞清是问某一段还是全文的大意。可利用段落信息来把握文脉，进行综合归纳，概括文章的主题。如有标题，标题中的蕴含的信息往往是关键信息。第三: 要学会借助文章的结构来把握中心思想。段落中心思想常常由主题句( Topic sentence)来表达。主题句常常出现在段首(60%-90%)或段尾处, 有时也在段落中间。同样, 一篇文章的中心思想也常常在开始段或结尾段点出。因此, 在阅读中, 我们要对文章的开始段和结尾段及段落的主题句给予特别的注意。小题5，根据前面两段的介绍可知，为了解决日益增长的食物需求，专家介绍了两种在高楼大厦可以发展的农业，垂直农业和屋顶农场，故主要介绍未来的农业类型，故选D。第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Imagine an area 34 times the size of Manhattan. Now imagine it covered ankle-deep in plastic waste- a total of about 19 billion pounds of garbage. _36_.“Were being overwhelmed(淹没)by our waste，”said Jenna Jambeck, an environmental engineer who led the 2020 study that determined this astonishing number. _37_, unless something is done to stop the tide of garbage.Plastic-a widely-used material-has in many ways been a benefit to humans but it has also caused a growing problem. Today, plastics are the No.1 type of garbage found in the sea. Ocean Conservancy, a nonprofit that organizes an annual coastal cleanup event worldwide, said plastic waste makes up around 85 percent of the garbage collected from beaches and oceans.Ocean Conservancy says plastics are believed t
